software that hides the screenshot writings

I need a software that hides some writings on the screenshots.
it would be better if it hides the original writings and will let me write over it.

any link for download?

SnagIt will allow you to blank out text and write over it. I use SnagIt to post here to blank out information not public.  SnagIt is at techsmith.com and is an excellent tool and not expensive.

Windows 7 has a slimmed down version of this built in. Have you tried it?

Nonetheless I much prefer SnagIt. The features you want come with SnagIt and SnagIt Editor.

It depends on what you mean by "hides some writings". You can use the Snipping Tool to capture just a portion of the screen, thereby hiding some other portions. For example, here I've used the Snipping Tool to capture just your question and hide everything else:

For example, here I've written a comment on it with Arial 10-point bold red text in Paint and saved it to a new file (JPG):

windows snipping too and Paint brush free, will do half of the job.

you can take screenshot and hide the writings, but if you try to write over it you will have to use paintbrush pen...which is not easy to write with.
